Re: Startup & Shutdown Automatically

In your $ORACLE_HOME/bin directory there are two files for this purpose. One is dbstart and the other is dbshut. You just have to place those files where the rest
of the system startup and shutdown scripts reside so that they get called. You should change the dbshut script to do a shutdown immediate instead of a plain shutdown.
The lfiles will usually go someplace like /etc/rc something. The comments at the top of the script
should give you a general idea where they go but your System Administrator needs to put
those files there since it requires root permission to change those directories as well as a su to
oracle so they execute correctly ( although I suppose you could give root a dba account and put
him in a dba group to save the su but I never heard of that being done ).
